Samo indeed had some capabilities. In actual fact, after calming down, if the conditions were adequate, the students of Elite Academy wouldn't be considered undeserved. Obviously, students were students after all. They would be a little flustered after experiencing major events. The moment Wang Zheng arrived, not only Snow Lee, but also the others somehow regained their confidence.
Snow Lee was focusing on taking care of Little Cutie. This was a young ice beast and needed to be breastfed. It was indeed a spiritual creature. It could actually absorb the cold air of Aisbotan to grow. Obviously, it would eat snow when it was hungry. Even Snow Lee who was from Hail Cloud Alliance was amazed.
Finally, Samo contacted the space fleet.
The commander of Hail Cloud Alliance's Fourth Fleet, Bente, was really having a headache. A group of pirates wasn't much. Pirates that landed on the ground weren't even comparable to chickens and could be killed casually. However, the problem was that thousands of citizens of Hail Cloud Alliance and a few special characters had caused the entire incident to blow up. A group of people who wished for the world to be in chaos had turned the entire incident into a farce. The entire Milky Way Alliance was watching.
If it wasn't handled well, it would be an international incident. Pirates were originally fugitives. If they were forced into a corner, they might really die together. However, they couldn't drag on like this. It was impossible to open up the route and let the pirates go. The special forces were already on standby. However, the strength of this Blood Thirst Pirate Group wasn't weak. He had to use the smallest price in exchange for the greatest victory.
If he didn't handle it well, his position as the commander of the fleet would be coming to an end.
Many a time, soldiers weren't afraid of a tough battle. They were afraid of such battles where it was difficult to advance or retreat.
"Reporting to the commander, someone has broken through the blockade and contacted us. It's a student of Elite Academy. There's another piece of good news. The leader of the Blood Thirst Column, Bartley, is dead!"
A colonel shouted anxiously.
Bente was originally in a bad mood. When he heard this, he was stunned. "What did you say? Bartley is dead?"
As the commander of the Air Force Fleet, how could Bente not know Bartley's name? This guy was also famous. He was also famous for being cunning and unscrupulous. The war hadn't even started and he was already dead?
Bente was naturally calm. "Connect it immediately!"
The image of Snow Lee appeared on the screen. Bente naturally recognized her. To put it bluntly, he could be considered as Snow Lee's senior. They graduated from the same school. Of course, Bente graduated 30 years earlier. Bente admired this girl who was born in the year of the Dancing Ice Dragon. This was because Bente came from an early immigrant family. All early immigrants advocated tradition and rules. They did not treat Snow Lee as a mascot.
"General, Elite Academy Snow Lee reporting to you." Snow Lee gave a standard military salute. This was the standard posture of the Hail Cloud Alliance.
"Snow Lee, I know you. When you graduated, I remember that you were the representative of the graduates and gave a speech. At that time, the topic that you talked about, if I remember correctly, was to use your life to defend the dignity of the Hail Cloud Alliance."
"Yes, General, you're right!" Snow Li was also a little surprised that General Bent still remembered her.
Bente nodded. This was the calmness of a General. He would not be impatient. "Tell me what you know about the situation."
Snow Lee had already reported the situation in the most concise manner. Wang Zheng and the rest were waiting at the side. Originally, everyone wanted Wang Zheng to report, but Wang Zheng gave it to Snow Lee. At this time, it was clearly not a matter of who was in the limelight, but to choose the most suitable person to communicate the situation clearly. Without a doubt, Snow Lee was the most suitable.
The situation was worse than expected. Bente's expression became more and more serious. Tank City had actually been massacred. In other words, the pirates did not give them any way out. They were almost fooled and thought that it was just a normal looting. Massacring the city was truly outrageous. If they let even one of these pirates escape, he would have to go to the military court. This was a major case that had not happened in decades.
Although it was not uncommon for merchant ships to go missing, it was rare for pirates to attack a planet.
Now was not the time to pursue the issues behind the scenes.
"Snow Lee, the special forces of the army have already started to descend. You guys are familiar with the situation. Is there any way to reduce the casualties?" Asked Bente. In fact, he was just asking casually. There were only a few students and a few pieces of equipment. Even if they were to go, they would be sending themselves into the mouth of a tiger.
"General, we are Ability X users. Therefore, we would like to enter the Ice Spear City and rescue the hostages." said Snow Lee.
Bente thought for a while. "You guys can act as you see fit. However, you have to know that safety comes first. The information that you guys have provided is already a great contribution. Also, is the pirate leader of the Blood Thirst, Bartley, really dead?"
"Yes, General. We are relying on the password in his Skylink to break through the blockade."
Bente's face was filled with surprise. "Get the technical personnel to prepare immediately. If we can get hold of their secret key, we can let the special forces approach quietly."
Following which, Samo would be transferring the documents to the higher-ups. Samo had not expected that he would be able to participate in such a big matter. Moreover, he had shown his face in front of General Bente. As long as he didn't die this time around, he would definitely be able to achieve meteoric success in the future.
Frankly speaking, he didn't think much of Wang Zheng in the past. It wasn't much if he could fight a little. There were many people who could fight. So what in the end? Mankind was no longer in the primitive society where the strongest fist was the most powerful. Humans had to rely on their brains to survive. However, even he felt that Wang Zheng was a good person. In fact, before they met Wang Zheng, they were like stray dogs and didn't know what to do. Suddenly, they had achieved a great contribution. However, Bartley had nothing to do with them. However, Wang Zheng didn't mention this matter. Clearly, he wanted to share the credit with everyone.
At this moment, Wang Zheng wasn't thinking about these small matters. Killing an Earth Grade pirate might be a great opportunity for some people to make a name for themselves. However, Wang Zheng didn't care at all. Ai Xiaolu and the rest were still inside. Wang Zheng was thinking about how he had to save her first.
The collusion between the Cronode Family and the pirates couldn't be revealed. It would be useless even if it was revealed. After all, they didn't have any evidence. In fact, Ai Xiaolu's existence would be an obstacle for the military's assault. The pirates would definitely use her as a threat. If they could save Ai Xiaolu, the pressure on the military would be reduced a lot.
As for the pirates, they would have to make this trip to the Ice Spear City.
"Wang Zheng, you have to think of a way to save Xiaolu." Snow Lee's expression was very determined at this moment. If she followed Wang Zheng, she wouldn't be afraid even if she died.
Wang Zheng nodded his head. Ai Xiaolu was definitely one of the few friends that Wang Zheng had in the Elite Academy. He had to save her. Wang Zheng didn't have the problem of being afraid of death. What he was pondering was how to maximize the results of the battle.
Everyone saw that Wang Zheng's expression was very solemn. They also knew that this matter had a slim chance of survival. However, Wang Zheng and Snow Lee weren't afraid of death. They weren't afraid of death either.
Wang Zheng sighed. Everyone's heart immediately sank. Could it be that there was really no way at all?
Wang Zheng looked at everyone's expression and smiled faintly. "It's alright. I'm just a little regretful that Bartley had died in pieces. Even if his corpse was intact, I could at least use him to negotiate with the pirates. What a pity."
Snow Li and the rest heaved a sigh of relief. Facing an Earth-rank pirate leader, Wang Zheng was the only one who still wanted to die in one piece.
"Wang Zheng, our numbers are too small after all. It would be too difficult to enter." said Cai Yingmeng. His eyes were flickering. Frankly speaking, he didn't want to die.
"That's why we can't use mecha. Let's wait for the night and sneak in." said Wang Zheng.
Not using mecha? Everyone was stunned. Could it be that they were going to use a human body to fight against mecha?
However, thinking about it, it seemed that this was the only way to enter the city.
"Wang Zheng, isn't this too risky?"
Everyone didn't have any confidence at all. It was especially so for a few of them who were support ability users. Frankly speaking, everyone felt that Wang Zheng wasn't from the same world as them. This person's guts were already out of this world.
Wang Zheng nodded his head. "I'll go and scout first. You guys stay here and maintain contact with the fleet. If there's any situation, inform me immediately."
"I'll go with you!" said Snow Lee.
Wang Zheng smiled. "I can do it alone. You need to be in charge of commanding here. Don't worry."
"Snow Lee, listen to Wang Zheng. His skills are the best among us. At this moment, the Ice Spear City is like a tiger's den. If there were too many people, it would become his burden." said Samo.
And in the Ice Spear City … there wasn't any strict preparations. On the contrary, the pirates were enjoying themselves without restraint. Karen was having a headache.
Bartley had gone missing. Damn it, something must have happened to him. Without Bartley's jurisdiction, this bunch of pirates was really hard to deal with. Although they were surrounded by the Hail Cloud Alliance, no one seemed to care. All the pirates thought that since they had so many hostages in their hands, especially important people, the Hail Cloud Alliance wouldn't dare to attack them even if they had the guts.
However, Karen didn't think so.
(The first chapter has been sent. There are still two more chapters today. I have to finish writing even if I don't eat. Today is the Lantern Festival. I wish my friends a happy Lantern Festival. You must eat Yuanxiao. Those who are single outside, go to the supermarket and buy a packet of home-brewed beer. It would also be very nourishing.)
